Goodfellas Barbershop is much more than just a barbershop--it's a business that truly embodies generosity, compassion, and community support. Jacob is an absolute professional and a master of his craft. He takes the time to listen, asks thoughtful questions to ensure clients get exactly what they want, and approaches every cut with incredible attention to detail. The fade was flawless, and he even took the extra step of trimming the eyebrows and cleaning up facial hair. His precision, skill, and dedication to quality are evident in every aspect of his work. What truly sets Jacob apart, however, is his character. After we called multiple places looking for someone willing to make an emergency last-minute house call for a grieving family before a funeral the next day, Jacob stepped up without hesitation. Despite having already worked a full day, he came out after closing hours to help this family during a difficult time. His kindness, compassion, respect, and willingness to go above and beyond made a world of difference when it was needed most. We are incredibly grateful for Jacob and cannot recommend Goodfellas Barbershop highly enough. Exceptional service, exceptional talent, and an even more exceptional human being. Thank you, Jacob! We appreciate you! read more

Thank you for helping my family out in a time of need. Our family requested to have their loved one get a nice haircut with a fade to have his open casket. We called alot of barbers and Jacob was the only one that understood the depth and importance of the service. Thank you Jacob. We appreciate you so much!!!! read more

This shop is great. Always on time and they get me in and out. Jacob always fun to be around and always takes interest in my day to day life. Kev is a great new addition very attentive and cuts well. Highly recommend read more

Firme haircut, will return definitely , all attention to detail. Can work with modern and old skool styles

This place out-competes all the other one star reviews I've given and takes the cake for the absolute WORST experience. I would give it negative stars if I can. Here's what happened: I had been looking for a barber shop for my little boy. I searched on Yelp and saw that Goodfellas takes walk-ins so I decided to give it a try. I tried calling the shop with the number provide on Yelp several times to ask the price but no one answered. When I got there, it didn't look open so I called the number posted on the front window. Turned out the barber, a Latino man in his 50's, was outside chatting with someone in another car. He said he takes walk-ins and proceeded to open the shop for the day. We went in and my son got seated. I asked if he does any designs and he answered no. I then remembered to ask him for the price since I didn't see it on Yelp or the shopfront, and there is no website to refer to. (Up to this point, no more than 5 minutes has elapsed. Not only had he not begun cutting my son's hair, he hadn't even put the barber cape on or taken out his tools) He told me the price for a boy's haircut is $40. I said that was too expensive for me This is when everything turned sour. He suddenly got really upset with me and said I made him open the shop for nothing--his so called opening up was pulling back the curtains and turning on the lights. I told him I wasn't aware of the price. He said he works graveyard shifts and I wasted his time. I don't know what his working graveyard shifts has to do with me. If he can't be bothered to be professional and decent after a night shift, then for everyone's sake, he shouldn't open at all. As soon as my son walked out and I crossed over the threshold, he slammed the door loudly behind us and repeated that I wasted his time. Needless to say, my little one was startled. The man-child then opened the door, again, and came out saying that I should take money with me the next time I go anywhere. (??? Such a stupid attempt at a dig) I told him that he was being incredibly rude and that if he didn't want people wasting his time, he should POST THE PRICE SOMEWHERE so potential clients are aware. He said for me to afford what I can (I didn't really understand this comment. Maybe he was trying to call me cheap? I don't know. Anyway, another dumb attempt at a dig) so I straight up said I can't afford a $40 boy's cut. He then got in his car and sped away down Rosalyn Dr. I felt so bad. Not at all for the prick, but for the fact that my son had to witness his rotten behavior. So I definitely would not recommend Goodfellas. I don't know if there are other barbers there, but if this oaf is the only one, stay away. read more

Jake hooked me up with the fresh fade, my first time at the shop and I found my new home after moving from the South Bay. Goodfellas indeed!

Jake is a standup guy, an experienced steady hand when it comes to cutting hair. I was out with my family in concord today and we decided to walk over to see about a haircut. He took great care of my hair, but if you're a fan of the old school barbershop vibe, you know that the haircut isn't the only thing you go for. You go for a pilgrimage of sanity, to chat with your barber who gets to know you over many conversations over the years, and you get to see a familiar face, and look forward that fresh shave and trim. Today was my first time working with Jake, but it felt as if he has always been there just waiting for me to stop on by again. He chatted and told stories, and he let my baby son babble and wander rounds the barbershop causing trouble. I highly recommend you pay Goodfellas Barbershop a visit. read more

Rather than knowing if they have "gender neutral restrooms," I'd much rather know their PRICES. For a normal 20 minute haircut some barbers charge $25. That's $75 per hour! (Do the math.) You can rent a chair in a barber shop for $400/month, that's only $13/day. That makes the $75/hr into $73/hr. There's no other overhead. I and most people in Concord make about $25/hr. $73/hr is just too greedy. Why doesn't Yelp list prices or price ranges for barbers? read more

I've been going to chain salons my whole life and I have no idea why.. Today was the best haircut experience I've had in a long time! Jake did an amazing job on my hair and beard, he actually listened to what I wanted and then took his time making sure it looked good. I'll definitely be going back! Walk ins are welcome but he works alone so an appointment is best and $40 for a cut and beard line up is unbeatable for the quality! read more

Goodfellas Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Concord, California

First time at this barber shop and it was a good experience. There wasn't much of a wait on a late Saturday morning. There were 3 people working and they all seemed to vibe well. One tv playing a movie at first then switched to football. I only got a beard trim but the guy who did it took his time and at the end made sure I liked it before leaving. I didn't get his name but he might have been the owner. Great service throughout. I'll be back next time for a haircut as well. Prices are very reasonable and it's good they take walk ins not like a lot of other shops nowadays. Parking out front which is always a plus. read more

We came here after years of going to Great Clips because my son is ten-years-old and now wanted to visit an official barbershop. Jake was wonderful! with a quick picture he was able to assess what my son wanted for his hair and perfected it. My ten-year-old liked how he smells when he left! We will definitely be back, because the experience with personalized, the service was fantastic, and the price was right. read more

Sooo I pulled up to the front of Goodfellas Barber Shop in my Soccer Mom minivan and walked in with my 3 kids. The shop is teeny tiny with only 3 stations and no real waiting area, just a handful of chairs 2 feet away from the stations! This is probably a great setup for the men to talk sports, complain about their women, and whatever else men do but for me....it was REALLY AWKWARD especially because the men getting their hair cut were hot! But within seconds of sitting down, the barbers and the hot male customers started friendly conversations with my kids! When these hotties walked out with the cleanest haircuts I've ever seen, I knew we went to the right place. Walt called my son to his station, combed out his hair took the time to tell my son how he should comb his hair, and listened to how we wanted it cut. Walt worked his magic and was very patient with my fidgety son who now will walk into school on the first day with the freshest cut! read more

We found the Goodfellas Barber Shop off of yelp. They're rated 5 stars, which they have definitely earned every single star. The place was a little tricky to find at first. It's a small shop behind the liquor store. Parking was easy. The atmosphere was very relaxing and super chill. Lots of laughs and jokes. They are very hospitable as well. My boys and I were waiting outside in our truck and they walked out to us and offered us water. My boys loved getting their hair cuts as well which turned out nothing short of AMAZING. Will definitely take them back here again. *edited to add that this was my boys' first time at a shop. Usually my husband cuts their hair so I was worried they wouldn't sit still. They handled my curious boys perfectly! read more

El mero mero, Jake, hooked me up this morning with a perfect line up. Love this shop! Old school and Latino friendly

The guy who cut my hair is Sonny. He did a good job. He listens to what you want to do with your hair. During my fade he went through many clip changes so like an artist who uses many different tools for different reasons I feel he knows what he is doing. I went in for a zero side faded buzz cut and it costs $25 plus tip. The environment is very male-friendly, as in posters of women or boxers on the wall, and the general decor of the place was very man-cave like. Lots of construction union workers were coming in and out to chit chat with Jack, and it seems lots of customers want Jack to cut their hair. The A/C is not too powerful but it gets the job done, I was not uncomfortable even tho it was a hot day. They have a bathroom for customer use, and a tv which had sports playing. Jack has a bluetooth speaker he connects to play music also. read more

Moved into the area not to long ago and found the shop. Right away the guys were welcoming and insightful. They really know their barber stuff and also help create a chill, cool atmosphere at the shop. As for the actual haircut, it was great. Juan had my hair done in 30-35 minutes and was out the door. The shop will be my go to spot from now on. So, if you're looking for a place to get a fresh haircut, this is the place for you. read more

Jake is AMAZING! Took excellent care of my son, was friendly and the haircut is second to none! Thank you Jake for your kindness and seeing us last min on a Monday! Lauren and Garrett read more

Took my son there for his first real barber cut. Kev did a great job and a good time for the boy and I. I can't say enough about this place. Good job all the way around read more

Goodfellas Barber Shop - Adrian is the man! Look at that great cut.. Definitly our new spot.. - Barbers Near Me - Concord, California

Both guys J and Juan cut great. Shop has that old school feel, the kind you went to as a kid. They do appointments which is awesome and walk ins as well. They're very customer service oriented and most of the time offer you a beverage if they have them. Also offer patrons shaves which is a lost art. Highly recommended and worth the wait but book a appointment if you need to. read more

Horrible haircut. Way to short. The barber was more interested in talking than doing the haircut. Never again. Though their sign with pricing and discounts were on the wall ( we qualified for the discount), he told me the price for the haircut was $20 not the$15 that was posted. When I asked him about it he said "oh yeah, it's $15. ". NOT RECOMMENDED read more

Came thru as a walk in last minute style, very unlike me. However, after seeing this place pop up on Yelp with good reviews I was fairly confident I would get a decent fade. Since looking for a "new" barber reserves skepticism for anyone who gets fades regularly, my mans Walter hooked me with a solid cut. I used to frequent People's Barber Shop in Oakland, but cuts get a lil pricey from them ranging from $40-$50. Good Fellas hit me with a fade + short combover on the top for $21. Unheard of nowadays, especially from a place that knows how to cut hair. Comfy vibe, hole in the wall type spot, a true barber shop in essence. The "Hot Boyz" Pandora station was a good look too hahaa Definitely worth my time and money. Also, they're open 6 days a week -Sundays are appointments only, so technically they're open 7 days. read more

After a quick search on Yelp for local barbers, I found my way to Goodfellas yesterday afternoon. Just as the name suggests, I walked into a small hole-in-the-wall, 4 barber chairs, and 3 great guys working on clients. You add your name to a list, can get a refreshment from the customer fridge, grab a chair, and take in the "old skool" vibe. The shop was packed, so I did have to wait an hour for my turn. During the wait, I was amazed at the innovative, trendy, precision cuts the other customers were getting done. The owner himself (Jake) gave me a "gentleman's haircut," and I couldn't be happier. (I think the modern term is a fade with a short combover) Although I could get in and out at my previous spot in 20min, it didn't matter if the cut was bad (hence why I was looking for a new place) As others have said, it's worth your time and money to get a good cut, so I'll be coming back to Goodfellas. read more

They refuse to add your name to the waiting list on the phone. I call and get told it's a minimum 90 minute wait. I asked if they would add my name to the list and I would be there in 90 minutes. They refused. They said I was required to travel to the shop and put my own name on the list and wait. I asked what I was supposed to do for 90 minutes. They said "I don't know. I guess you could run some errands". I said, "I don't have any errands in the area," They said "Sorry". So, apparently it's too much trouble for them to add my name to the queue so that I may arrive when it is convenient for all parties. Somehow, someway, requiring me to drive to their front door and sit around and wait for 90+ minutes is what I am supposed to do. That is a tremendous waste of time, entirely unnecessary, and not acceptable. But I guess it's ok. They're still apparently pretty busy and don't need my business, read more

Been here twice with my 5yr old and enjoyed it both times! First time when we walked in they were playing some pretty hard rap; no biggie to me I understand I walked into a barber....Jake was so nice, he changed it casually to something a little less explicit. Hair cut was perfect! Second time went well too. Great haircut again, and friendly conversation with the other waiting. We'll be going back again and again! read more

**Review on my husbands behalf** His first appointment at Goodfellas was very impressive and instantly made him a client for the future. Jake definitely makes his clients feel at home when their at his shop. && the services are the best around! My husband made an appointment for himself and 3 of his groomsmen for our wedding last October, Which was a Sunday....if you look at their schedule you will see they are closed on Sundays. Jake and his crew went above and beyond that morning. Not only did they come in on their days off to have my husband and our wedding party looking their best but they also out did themselves with their hospitality that morning and made the whole experience like a pre celebration for the day we were all about to have! Jake, Thank you so much for putting so much heart into your shop. It definitely shows with the way you are with you clients! && Sorry for the delay on this review. -Jordan & Andrea Penning read more

Awesome barber shop! Super friendly! We took our 20 month old baby boy for his first real haircut today--stop growing, baby!! The barber was very sweet and you could tell he loved kids. We were offered water and he gave the baby a popsicle! His haircut looks soooo good! Exceeded our expectations! Thank you, Goodfellas! 10/10 definitely going back :) read more

It's been some time now that my son had a haircut I've been taking him to "Mr Jake" since he was 3 after 2 bad experiences at kid salons needless to say I should have taken him to Jake from the beginning. Jake is great with him last hair cut was in March the weekend before lockdown. He won't let me cut it he says only "Mr. Jake" knows how. We miss Mr Jake. read more

J is the only Barber I trust he's been cutting my hair off almost 5 years even before he owned his own shop he is the man and I will continue to be a customer I will Drive from Antioch to Concord anytime for a good haircut read more

Man I was treated better at this barbershop than I am on my own birthdays at home! I think this place is like a three brothers shop or something because they were all on the same page when it came to hospitality! Waked in and Kevin said hello, shook my hand, introduced himself, and offered my wife and I refreshments. He was giving someone else a haircut and their conversation gave the place a down to earth feel. Later Jacob came in and did the same as Kevin, shook my hand, introduced himself etc. He kind of looked like an OG so I'd be respectful if you decide to come here or you're likely to get dropped real quick! No, but seriously tho everybody was super chill and friendly, they had a bunch of cool sports paraphernalia decorating the shop, boxing gloves, jerseys, etc. Jacob did a great job with my haircut, I asked for a medium Reg aka a crew cut and I have to say it was one of the best haircuts I've ever received. I know a med Reg is nothing fancy but you'd be surprised how many barbers can't do the basics. Throughout the haircut everybody was pretty talkative, it gave the place a real chill atmosphere. Kind of reminded me like the barbershop from "Coming to America" where everyone is smoking and joking just having a good time! (No one was literally smoking). They even invited me to their anniversary BBQ, which is happening sometime in May!! When everything was said and done they shook my hand again and welcomed to the shop. Man I don't think my own dad has shaken my own hand more than once my entire life! I definitely recommend this barbershop to anybody in the Bay Area! read more

Noticed this new barbershop when I was across the street one day having my car stereo worked on, my hair was beginning to get a little scraggly so I thought what the heck I'll give them a shot. Walked in to a great atmosphere, old sports memorabilia hanging on the wall, good music playing, everything was clean but most of all both barbers were very friendly and immediately greated me, introduced themselves and told me that they would get me in next. I ended up in Kevin's chair (the younger of the two) he was very friendly and treated me as if I had been coming there for years. He created small talk and tried his best to make me feel comfortable as did the other barber (Jake) who I later found out was his brother and the owner of the shop. It was nice not having an awkward haircut filled with nothing but silence. I told Kevin what I usually get (bald taper with a 4) and he went to work, ended up being by far one of the best haircuts I've ever had! Great haircut, great atmosphere, great pricing and great service from friendly barbers....I will definitely be returning to Goodfellas barbershop on a regular basis now and referring my friends. read more

I haven't sent my boys there to get their hair cut YET...BUT I WILL! Long story short, they found my lost dog and made it a point to get us reunited... These are good people running a family business... AND THEY CAN GET DOWN ON HAIR TOO! I sat in the shop chit-chatting a bit and watching them cut hair - This is where I'm taking my clan from now on.. $10 for a kids cut! read more

The best. My son has been getting his hair cut here for two years now and it's always a quality cut. The barbers treat him like "one of the guys" even though he's only four- I think that's what he likes best about this place. Everyone is very nice and the hair cuts are perfect. Highly recommend. read more

I love taking my kids here everyone there is amazing. I take my kids to Adrian and he does such an Amazing job with my sons. He is very patient with them. Such a great guy read more

There's 3 chairs in the shop where you'll have either Jake, Kev, or Adrian cutting you- all smart & patient barbers who genuinely care about their craft. Rarely does it occur that I try, and am impressed by every barber in a barbershop (typically different barbers have certain areas they're strong at) but after finding them on Yelp and coming here for about my 8th time, I've come to realize how consistently on point all three of them are. As with any top notch barber shop, weekends are a bit busy, so it's best to call in advance or schedule an appointment for Sunday (appt. only day). It's worth the wait though, and they're not the type to waste your time with pause-and-go cutting/unnecessary chatter. If you're looking for a fresh cut and a clean fade for $15, give these guys a try. You just might find the legit barber shop you're looking for. read more

Best clean haircuts you can ask for. Have you seen the movie the barbershop? The same feel, same enviorment. You can even have beers! Beyond having the best clippers in contra costa, Jake truly understands people and has amazing personality. If you want the best come to Goodfellas read more

I recently moved to Concord, CA and my barber who I've been going to in SF for the past 10 years was just to far to go to. I was recommended GoodFellas by a coworker so I thought I'd give them a shot. Jacob the owner was the first person I meet there and he made me feel welcomed and at home. He cut my hair just the way I like it and also gave me a hot shave which was top notch. I have since returned to this barber shop and today got just a hot shave from his brother Kevin who did a great job just like his brother did. I would highly recommend this barber shop to anyone looking to get a great cut/shave or just a place to feel at home. read more

Came here with my son who is almost 2 and doesn't sit still. Kevin did an excellent job! He also cut my hair and with very little instruction, he nailed it. The only down side is, we had to wait about 45 minutes. I'll be back! read more
